          Brook. Do you have a breakdown of these new SIS videos? Like the workouts, the times, the amount of reps in each segment??? Just wondering. I have been looking and not finding anything.

Even Debbie looks more ripped & toned, which is hard to imagine it was possible to do considering how great she looks in Slim in 6. Debbie is tough, very tough. One or two of the videos has Debbie's sister in it too. Can't remember which ones though.

            I AM VERY, VERY AFRAID!!!!

              I am smart enough to be very afraid of Debbie. She scares me.

              I mean, really. Can you imagine what the next set she releases is going to be like?!!


              Barb- I have breakdowns of Si6 and P90, but that's it. I've never found a breakdown of Slim Series- cuz I've gone looking too! They obviously don't want it out there!

              But I have an idea....

                  Well...if we each took a dot on the screen and jotted down the times and it's contents for each workout we do....it's be easy to compile said hotlists. And no one would have to sit through what? 7 hours of the Squat **** jotting it down.

                  Or is that dumb?

                    A dot's worth sounds do-able. 2 more days left to go until we see Debbie, that devil pixie, squat **** (love that one!), an any other name you have for her (feel free to post your names for Debbie). What gets me is that she's usually SMILING throughout the workout, like she KNOWS she's killing us. Twisted, isn't she?

                        There are reviews of all 6 routines posted at www.videofitness.com, but no minute-by-minute breakdowns. There are some general lists of what the tapes contain, though. Tear it Up, for instance, is 78 minutes long and breaks down as follows:


                        There is a 5 minute warmup, with some fun moves. Squats, Half-squats, front kicks. Jogging in place, half-jacks, medium impact side-to-side lunges. You really feel nicely warmed by the end.

                        She starts with the 5s and does:
                        (many many reps, at 1 rep per sec)
                        (Usually she changes cadence during the exercise to pulses and back)
                        (No rest breaks in the upper body blast)
                        Upright rows
                        Bent over rows
                        Standing chest press
                        Standing rotators
                        Standing w's (shoulder work)
                        Bent over raises (delt raises)
                        Bicep work
                        French press

                        Then you do ab and leg work (standing)
                        knee pulls on one side
                        Front punches
                        knee pulls on the other side
                        Lunges (elbow to the knee)
                        low lunges/knee raise (burns those quads)
                        lunges (elbow to the knee)
                        low lunges/knee raise (other side)

                        Cardio break :

                        For 60 secs, you do jogging in place, jacks (7), jogging, marching in place at the end for 15 seconds.

                        Lunges (all on one foot). Then static lunges. Then switch legs.

                        Dead lifts
                        Plie squats - then at the low end of the movement.

                        Calf raises

                        Front/back kicks

                              Yep, I'm going to die after reading Lawyers breakdown. I am no longer excited to be a vidiot on Monday. I am already feeling the pain and I haven't even moved a muscle.
